Expert Answers about Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited


  • Compatibility of Roadmaster RM-035-1 D-Ring Adapters with Nighthawk Tow Bar
  • The Roadmaster # RM-035-1 D-ring adapters are indeed compatible with a Roadmaster Nighthawk tow bar. However, because you aren't using traditional base plates, you might have difficulty finding a good spot to attach the safety cables. In this situation, Roadmaster recommends using extensions like # RM-910648-20. You'd want to wrap the extension around the frame members just behind the bumper then attach to the safety cables. If you decide to use the tow bar for a different vehicle,...

  • Best 4-Bike Bike Rack for Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon
  • Yes the Kuat NV 2.0 4-Bike Platform Rack # NV22B-NA22B will fit your Jeep Wrangler Rubicons's 2" hitch. The maximum weight the bike rack can carry with 4 bikes loaded is 160 lbs. A combined maximum weight of 242 lbs Including the weight of the bike rack of 82 lbs would be below a 2" hitch maximum weight rating. With the Rubicon package you may run into clearance issues with the spare tire when folding the bike rack up. When the bike rack is folded up the closest point is 7" away from...

  • Correct Front Hitch Model for my 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JKU Polar Edition
  • Since we know your Polar Edition 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited uses the standard front bumper the Draw Tite front hitch part # 65069 or the Curt part # 31432 would fit and work well. The larger wheel diameter would not be an issue at all.

  • Does Saris Freedom 4 Bike Platform Rack # SA4414B Fit Womens Bikes
  • Yes the Saris Freedom part # SA4414B will work great with the frame styles of the Townie bikes that you have! The Saris Freedom does a great job securing bikes frames of different shapes and sizes. Additionally, this is a good paring with your Rubicon since it has a measure of 13-1/2" from the center of the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the rack when in use. It also has a measure of 10 inches when the rack is in the folded position. I attached a review video for more info on...

  • Is Thule HideAway Awning Compatible with AEV Roof Rack on 2017 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon
  • From what I could find online it looks like the Thule HideAway Awning # TH490010 is compatible with the AEV roof rack on your 2017 Jeep JK Wrangler Rubicon, you just need to use the Adapter Kit # TH490001 to mount it on your roof rack. The adapter kit comes with brackets that will wrap around the crossbars or T-Bolts that you slide into the T-Slots instead. Max crossbar dimensions are 1.4" tall x 3.5" wide (for the brackets) while the max T-Slot width is 0.8" (for the T-Bolts). I have...

  • Will D-Ring Adapters Fit a 2018 Wrangler JK Unlimited Freedom Edition for Flat Towing Behind an RV
  • For D-ring adapters # RM-035 you have to go by what they fit. First measure the D-ring mounts on the bumper. If they are 3/4 inches fit then the adapters will fit around them. Next measure the diameter of the hole in one of the D-ring mounts. If the hole is either 7/8 inch or 1 inch in diameter you can use these adapters. But you also have to check with Jeep or the bumper manufacturer to determine if the bumper is rated for flat towing. Not all of them are. Assuming everything will work...

  • Though we do not have an adapter specially designed for the ARB bumper on your 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited, the Blue Ox Base Plate Adapter Brackets part # BX88357 may still work for you. This adapter is designed to work with a 3/4" tabs with 7/8" diameter pins. They are compatible with the Blue Ox Aladdin, Alpha, and Aventa LX tow bars. I also recommend that you check with the bumper manufacturer to make sure the bumper is rated for flat-towing. For a flat-tow wiring harness I recommend...

  • Does Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch 31432 Fit A 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon W/ Steel Bumper
  • As long as your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon has the standard steel bumper and not the Hard Rock Edition bumper then the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 31432 is the correct hitch for you. If your bumper is the Hard Rock Edition Bumper then you will need to go with the Curt # C31433 instead. I included a video of the # 31432 being installed and a link to the written instructions of the # C31433 for you to take a look at.

  • Will 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975-11933 Fit a 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited
  • 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket # HM40975-11933 will fit your 2018 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited JK as long as it has the factory tow package. I am assuming that it does since it came with a 4-Way connector but it would be worth asking the dealer if it is equipped with the factory tow package. They can usually just run the VIN in their computer system to determine how a vehicle is equipped. If it does not have the factory tow package then to add a 7-Way you will need # ETBC7. I have included...

  • Recovery Board Mount Options For The Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack Crossbars
  • The Rhino-Rack Recovery Track Flat Carrier # RR43235 is designed to connect to the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Platform Rack for Crossbars # RR42114BF using the track rack system, which the Rhino-Rack Vortex SG do not have. Instead, you'll have to mount the Rhino-Rack Universal Pioneer Rack # RR42114BF to your Rhino-Rack SG Roof Rack for Rain Gutters - Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRSG59, which you then can mount the Rhino-Rack Recovery Track Flat Carrier # RR43235.

  • Can the Surco Spare-Tire-Mounted Cargo Basket Carry 5 Gallons of Gasoline?
  • The Surco Spare-Tire-Mounted Cargo Basket - 19" Long x 43" Wide # SPSJ4319 has a 100 lb capacity so it absolutely can carry your 5 gallon can of gas. This carrier however is not intended for off-road use, so if used in that capacity you will be operating outside of the warranty and you will want to make sure the weight is as centered as possible to reduce torque on the shaft and mount. I recommend using the Erickson Roof-Rack Cargo Net - 36" x 48" # EM01010 for loose items and tie down...

  • Bike Rack That Will Allow Tailgate Opening On 2018 Jeep Wrangler JK
  • I believe you are referring to the Swagman Current Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # S64678, which is compatible with the Fat Tire Kit # S64694 you referenced. This bike rack would very likely get in the way of your rear tailgate door that swings open so I don't recommend trying to open it with this rack attached. Another thing to keep in mind is that if you have a spare tire on the back you will want to measure from the hitch pin hole to the rearmost part of the...

  • Is There a Chart For Inflating Firestone Air Bags F2286
  • Thanks so much for the purchase from etrailer of the Firestone Ride-Rite Air Bags # F2286! There is not a chart of any kind, no. You really do just have to toy around with the air pressure to find the right setting (which is admittedly a bit of a pain). But it does sound like you may be inflating them too much, as too much pressure can lead to a stiffer ride and some bouncing. So I'd try backing off the psi a bit, maybe 5 psi at a time, until you find the setting that's best for your ride.

  • Can the Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain # RM-576 be Used to Tow a 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited
  • Yes, the Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain # RM-576 will work with your 2018 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited as long as you have a Roadmaster base plate kit installed. If you have the standard factory bumper then you can use the EZ4 Base Plate Kit # RM-521448-4. Let me know if you have a different bumper and I can see what we have that will work with both your bumper and the Sterling All Terrain. A complete flat towing setup includes a base plate kit, tow bar, safety cables, vehicle tow bar wiring,...
